Invalid type for key imagem1, expected file, but got string

Question

I tried to use UIImagePNGRepresentation but when i upload the images to Parse they are too big, but the small images were working fine. For that reason i tried to use UIImageJPEGRepresentation, but it doesnt matter if the image is big or small, always get an error "Invalid type for key imagem1, expected file, but got string":

    let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(restaurante.imagem[0],0.75)
    let imageFile = PFFile(name:"image.png", data:imageData).description
    Restaurantes["imagem1"] = imageFile

    Restaurantes.saveInBackground()

Got a string? How? Thank you :)

Answer 1

You have added .description to the end of the definition, so you're creating your PFFile instance and then getting the description of it. Remove that part of the line.
